well, I'm sure that if you really wanted to try to write your own
auth module in PHP you could theoretically do so - but in lieu of
that there is an open source apache module that you might want to
look into called mod_ntlm http://modntlm.sourceforge.net/
keep in mind that all this does is ask the browser for the current
users creds after a handshake. IE is the only one that I know of that
will gleefully hand out that info without asking the user - all the
other browsers that I've tested ask you if that's ok with you first
(as it should be)

thanks for the response, i can see how this works (i think) for basic
authentication with user input,but what i really need is to actually
retrieve the logged on user name after a user has logged into windows.
i.e. the user name that the http client passes to the apache mod has
been captured not from user input, but from say a piece of code that
picks up the user name when the user logs in.
Probably less to do with php now that i come to think of it, but
thanks
anyway.

Ah...I see now. Several have asked this question, let me rephrase and
see if this makes better sense....
How can one capture the login user name from a Windows logon? ASP
can do
it, but can it be done with PHP as one would do with PHP_AUTH_USER?
IIRC I don't think that it is possible with PHP.
